I am just getting around to reading my old editions of Saponifier Magazine. Each year the magazine polls subscribers on “The Best Of.” I always find the answers to be enlightening. So, in honor of award season, here you go…

“It is worth considering the countless nuances and blends in fragrances that make counting each one exactly as next to impossible; therefore, we grouped them into the dominant broad scent category or type that they belonged in. For instance, Vanilla Bean, Tahitian Vanilla, and other forms of vanilla scents were counted together under the category of vanilla. All mints and mint blends were placed in the mint category, and so on. The citruses presented a bit of a quandary, as each one might be listed separately at times (Orange, tangerine, lime. . .) and other times non-specifically, IE: Citrus Medley. So, where a particular citrus was noted, it was placed in that category, and where simply citrus was noted, it was placed in its own category. Indeed, if all citruses had been placed under the simple citrus category, it would have placed near the top! Another important item to note is that no distinction is made between fragrance oils and essential oils.”
